6 Ways to Incorporate Fashion Jewelry into Your Look This Year

As the name implies fashion jewelry is fashionable as opposed to timeless. What’s hot today is out tomorrow and then it’s all back in next week. That’s why the biggest rule when it comes to this type of jewelry is just to have fun and pick the pieces that make you feel good while complementing - or at least not undermining - your outfit. With that in mind, we’re going to look at a half-dozen ways you can rock boho jewelry this year.

Making Fashion Jewelry Your Own in 2018

The fact that style is always in fashion and fashion comes and goes doesn’t mean bohemian jewelry is devoid of stylish elements. With that in mind, we’re going to take a quick look at 6 ways to work boho jewelry into your day to day wardrobe this year.

Change up the earrings already - Like all humans, women tend to be creatures of habit. Nowhere is this expressed more forcefully than in the fact that women tend to find a pair of earrings that work for them and then wear those earrings every day for the rest of their lives. Okay, so we’re exaggerating a bit, but really. Swap out your favs for something different and experience a whole new world of style this year.

Coordinate your colors - If you’re wearing a top with a large bold print choose fashion jewelry whose colors match. This will create synergy between your jewelry and the imagery that will elevate the value of both in visual terms. On the other hand, if you’re wearing neutrals pick a pendant necklace with a bright colorful stone that will really pop against the neutral background.

Rediscover yourself - Sometimes we get so caught up in trying to look good we forget to look like us. We lose track of the essential components of our taste and style and adopt an inauthentic look that may be beautifully constructed but doesn’t really express who we are. Buck that trend this year by digging down into the jewelry box or exploring the back of the jewelry drawer for pieces you loved before you learned too much about fashion rules.

Shine on you crazy diamond - It’s time to take the plunge and incorporate some of your shinier bling into your everyday jewelry. You may be holding that sparkly necklace or bracelet or those incredible statement earrings aside for your next big date or a trip to the theatre but we’re saying it’s time to pair them up with your distressed denim and flannel work shirt.

Have some fun with your watch - Why anyone still wears a watch in an age when everyone is carrying a smartphone is sort of a mystery. But even if watches have outlived their functional usefulness they still have value as fashion accessories. Next time you’re out shopping keep your eyes open for a fun watch that will dovetail with your other pieces.

Embrace the pendant - There are not many other accessories that say “bohemian jewelry” quite like a long pendant necklace. Without it, this type of jewelry just wouldn’t be so fashionable. Because of that, it’s time to head for Two A Jewelry and replenish your stock of pendant necklaces. And don’t just revisit the look of your existing pendants. Try something altogether new. If you need to buy some new outfits to go with your new pendants, so be it.

Style may never go out of fashion but neither does fashion jewelry. Take the above tips to heart and you’ll be well on your way to reinvigorating your relationship with your most important accessories.
